Way down here
You need a reason to move
Feel a fool
Running your stateside games
Lose your load
Leave your mind behind baby james
Oh Mexico
It sounds so simple
I just got to go
The sun's so hot
I forgot to go home
Guess I'll have to go now
Americano got the sleepy eye
But his body's still shaking
Like a live wire
Sleepy senorita with the eyes on fire
Oh Mexico
It sounds so sweet
With the sun sinking low
The moon's so bright
Like to light up the night
Make everything all right
Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
The folks back home
Don't want to talk on the phone
She gets a long letter
Sends back a postcard times are hard
Oh down in Mexico
I never really been
So I don't really know
Oh, Mexico
I guess I'll have to go
Oh Mexico
I never really been
But I'd sure like to go
Then oh Mexico
I guess I'll have to go now
Talking about in Mexico
And a honky tonk down in Mexico
Oh, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Oh, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
Oh, Mexico
Mexico, Mexico
